Reflections on living with and caring for animals

Bodhi Update

Bodhi’s meds came today, a compounded eye drop that he will get am and pm each day. How easy is that? Even easier than most dogs since he is blind and he can’t see the dropper over his eye.

But the best news…at least it seems so at this early moment…is that six hours after his first dose, Bodhi has stayed away from his water bowl for four hours…unheard of before. On his evening walk, he peed one small stream instead of the three really large ones he usually does. I am feeling really hopeful, and very curious to see if he makes it through the night without peeing in his sleep. (Thank God for belly bands is all I can say.) But paws crossed that we’ve found the answer for this sweet boy. It would be the best New Year’s present ever.
